Apparently, there is a port clogged because the area didn't seem to be getting any oil. Do you think this is the correct gear? Link attached. The distributor gear appeared to be undamaged.

It looks to be the correct gear. A new gear is $134.00 plus shipping. I would call the seller to see if it has that number on it. You need to check all those gears for wear. They were not getting any oil. Hal [Reply]  [No Email]

I am worried what I'll find when I open it up. All the gears in that area may be damaged. [Reply]  [No Email]

If there's metal particles from the gear teeth you probably need to do a complete teardown. It may be cheaper to buy a replacement engine from smallenginewarehouse. You don't need all that hp on a woodsplitter. I used a 10hp Tecumseh on a splitter I built back in 1982. I just ran it at a fast idle. Hal [Reply]  [No Email]
